All the ways you could be in my life

A love poem about how I wish you could be with me

I want to hear

Your voice at night

When it’s heavy with sleep.

I want to hear

You whisper my name

And tell me you love me.

I want to hear

You stumble around nearby

As you search for the light.

I want to hear

Your love

 

I want to feel

Your fingers in my hair

As we lie on a couch

I want to feel

Your warmth

When I wake up at night

I want to feel

Your lips

Against my neck

I want to feel

Your love

 

I want to see

Your eyes

As they stare into mine

I want to see

Your face

Deep in sleep beside me

I want to see

Your fingers intertwined with mine

As we walk down the street

I want to see

Your love

I want to smell

You cooking pancakes

On a Sunday morning

I want to smell

Your shampoo

When you bury your head in my neck

I want to smell

Your deodorant

After we danced together

I want to smell

Your Love      

 

I want to taste

Your cookies

That we made together

I want to taste

Your mouth

As we kiss for the first time

I want to taste

Your lasagna

With it’s family recipe

I want to taste

Your love

 

I want to know

You’re happy

Where ever you are

I want to know

You

All your little mannerisms

I want to know

You are safe

From the world and from your mind

I want you to know

I love you
